I wonder what the cross-section of the population is smart enough to be worth making sign a non-compete yet not smart enough to do a basic Google search on their enforceability.


A lot of people are good natured and just take others at their word.


This is exactly why I posted this. I want to make sure other Canadians are aware...

It is really dumb that while unenforceable, companies are able to get you to sign. As per the link the government is working on laws to outright ban the process.

The government needs to step up here, and enforce its own laws. If these are unenforceable companies should not be allowed to "trick" people.


Canadians don't break rules.
